Classy Chicken

This was one of the dishes brought to us after Brooklyn was born. For the first time in months I had seconds! It's so good.

Ingredients
3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts cut into cubes
1 tsp black pepper
3 tsp oil
2-3 cups of cooked rice
broccoli (to taste) cut up
1 can cream of mushroom or cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tsp curry powder or Dijon mustard
1 tsp lemon juice
1 cup grated cheese
bread crumbs

Directions
1. Sprinkle chicken with pepper and saute in oil over medium heat until white and opaque.

2. Mix soup, mayonnaise, curry or Dijon, lemon juice and the juice from the chicken in a bowl. Add a bit of water to dilute slightly.

3. Add a little of this mixture to the rice.

4. Arrange rice in bottom of 9 x 13" pan. Next do a layer of broccoli, then the chicken. Pour the soup mixture over this and finish off with a layer of cheese and bread crumbs.

5. Bake uncovered for 30-35 minutes or until heated through.

Nick mentioned after me making this that it would be better if the rice, chicken and broccoli were mixed together. I agree but it depends on your family's taste.
